Serviio stop auto-scanning after some time

It's been happening to me for a long time, with Windows 7 and now with Windows 10.

I always have my computer turned on, and I only restart or shutdown it about two times in a month. Serviiio seems to work fine when I start the PC, but after about... two or three days, Serviio stops autoscanning files. I add a lots of new vids every day in my PC, but when I connect from another device to Serviio, if its been about three days after my last restart, Serviio never updates new files. I have to open Serviio consola, and click in "force refresh". And since that moment, everytime I want to refresh Serviio I have to click that button or restart my PC so Serviio can work ok again (until another three days).

Any solution? Maybe an option about restarting the server automatically in a certain period?

I don't know why it would be doing this - perhaps turn on detailed logging and see if that sheds any light on it. I run Serviio for weeks without a restart (my PC does sleep though) and don't have this issue.

You can do this yourself using Windows Task Scheduler to stop and start the Serviio service (net start and net stop commands).
